Never a Dull Moment is the first solo album by then former Mötley Crüe drummer Tommy Lee, released on May 21, 2002 by MCA. Tommy Lee began writing music in September 2000, following Methods of Mayhem's stint on Ozzfest. Lee described the process in a 2002 interview:
Never a Dull Moment features the hit single "Hold Me Down". Its music video debuted in late April and found significant airplay on MTV2. Directed by Dean Karr, it revolves around Lee riding a strange flying machine which crashes. Cirque du Soleil-like performers are also featured in the video. "Hold Me Down" was performed on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on May 22, 2002. The track, as well as the singles "Sunday" and "Ashamed" aired on Muzak's Power Rock station as well.
Aside from basic alternative metal, Never a Dull Moment encompasses a variety of styles. Ballads are offered through "Ashamed" and "Blue", which features guest vocals by Brandon Boyd, and "Sunday" boasts Neue Deutsche Härte aesthetics. A cover of David Bowie's "Fame" is also featured on the album. In promotion of the album, Tommy Lee embarked on a tour beginning on May 24, 2002 and ending on July 20. This features bands such as Abandoned Pools and Headstrong. He also appeared on the Rock Fest 2003 tour alongside Nickelback and Default.
